Yeah that'd be nice. I couldn't find it, but I did find this news article (no idea of the reliability of the reporting of this site) which says:

As with the original complaint, the new one claims the Trump campaign had no meaningful opportunity to review and assess mail-in ballots. Philadelphia and Allegheny counties were cited as examples.

...

The relief sought by the amended complaint is basically the same as the original one.

It wants Judge Matthew W. Brann to order or issue an injunction that prohibits Boockvar and election boards in Allegheny, Centre, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery, Northampton and Philadelphia counties from certifying the results of the election.

In the alternative, it asks the judge not to allow the defendants from certifying results that include the tabulation of votes permitted to be cured.

...

The amended complaint acknowledges part of the original one could no longer be pursued because of an opinion issued Friday by a panel of the U.S. 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals.

Written by Chief Judge D. Brooks Smith, it upheld a Pennsylvania Supreme Court directive that allowed election officials to count mail-in ballots that were received up to three days after the close of polls.

Trump campaign says it disagrees with Smith’s opinion but eliminated its due process claims from the amended complaint.
